On digging a vault lately at Chichester for the lady of Dr. Buckner, three graves were discovered, containing bodies almost consumed : At the feet of one of them were placed two pewter candlesticks, and at the head a hollow pewter dish, evidently intended as a receptacle for the skull ... it appears to be a relick of Romish superstition.
